New Main Button Being Added to Hearthstone
Thanks to a post on the Hearthstone facebook page, it looks like a new button is being added to the main screen in Hearthstone.
We are not yet sure what it will be for, although it is worth pointing out that the current buttons we have are all for various play modes.
We have confirmed that the new Heroes will be chosen via the collection manager, which means Zhang Dong's statement that there was still more to come appears to be accurate. We are indeed getting another large piece of content! What are you hoping for?
Clarifications
Quote from BlizzardThere are currently no plans for a co-op mode. (Hearthstone.de Facebook)
Will new hero portraits be usable in arena?
How does this selection process work? In the settings or when you click 'play ranked'
It'll be a part of the collection manager. - Zeriyah (Source)
Tavern Brawl Art
Some new art has been posted on the @PlayHearthstone Twitter account. We aren't sure if it has any relation to the new button, but it is worth mentioning.
Hahahha!! I love this reply, I would crry if that happened..
Tournaments seems to be our most likely bet. It's not likely to be a cosmetics shop (although I wouldn't put it past them to troll us like that), and I don't think they'd release a 2v2 mode without having at least 2 heroes for each class out.
Custom game modes would be cool too, but has there been any indication of that in the past?
my bet is also on tournament but 2v2 is a close second.
this patch will be released in..?
inb4 they just remade the "Shop" to be more aesthetically accessible from the main menu
ive been waiting for this moment since hearthstone came out 2V2 HYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE!!!
Custom Game - Tournament Lobby - 2v2
One of those hopefully - so excited!
Hopefully a new game mode like arena, where classic packs are given
Man I hope this is lobbies... might be just cosmetics (skins and proper card back selection), but a man can still hope right ?
"The main elements of the next patch are not the new heroes. They didn't show the big thing."
so i guess whatever the big thing is, it has a new button?
some kind of custom game would be cool, choose HP levels and change amount of cards perhaps?
one can only hope
HYPE
That is the big thing that the Asian Manager told.My money is on tournament format.
New game mode *crosing fingers*
2 vs. 2 maybe?
A main button for cosmetics would be overkill. I'm thinking tournaments.
That would be cool :) Maybe something like "Lobbies", where you can set specific rules for usable decks. A man can dream
"Cosmetics"
"change hero appearance" perhaps?
